A Couple Of Questions About Dragon Quest Viii…?
So me and my sister kind of share the game, and I just really love it. I personally think it is one of the best RPG games ever made. However, I have some questions regarding the game that I would be very pleased to have answered…
1.) Gambling- there are a number of items in the Pickham Casino that I need for my alchemy pot, is there a proficient i can gamble to always to get coins? Or at least most of the time?
2.) Skill Points- without the use of seeds can you max out every weapon or skill? Or do I need to get to Dragonia and do the dragons?
3.) Jessica learns certain spells when you train her in staffs, if she is not using a staff can she use those spells in battle?
4.) What is the best way, and fastest way to kill metal slimes?
5.) Is there a better sword I can get near Maela Abbey other then the Copper Sword?
That’s pretty much it, thank you all in advance!

Here are some answers:
1.) Here is a great guide for how to win at the Pickham Casino by going through Bingo and Slots:http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/file…
Remember to save often so that if you do loose too much, you can always go back.
2.) No, you will not be able to max out every skill without the use of the seeds, so you will need to be careful where you apply the points.
Here is a great guide for the different skills and spells that you can get in the game:http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/file…
3.) You do not need to use a certain weapon to cast the spell you learn from that skill class. There are some abilities in a weapon’s skill set that only work if you are equipped with an item from that class, but the guide above goes more into that.
4.) Luck is the best way to beat Metal enemies.

5.) Near the Maella Abbey, the hero can have a Boomerang by then or a Long Spear. I do not remember anything better for swords for a little while.
